Question

2. Draw the Lewis structure of water and use your drawing to answer the following questions. 2.1 What types of electron regions are around the central oxygen atom in water (bond regions or lone pair regions or both)? 2.2 Which electron pair geometry, tetrahedral or square planar, would be more stable for a water molecule that has the configuration of lone pairs and bond regions on the central atom? Explain your choice.
